    Its personal taste, if you've seen both you should be able to decide.

    Personally I'd vote "not" - I think they're too bling.

    Yes, I've seen them in person! Half way between the OEM standard rims and chrome. IMO very tasteful!
    There are several pictures of ball polished rims in a prior thread.

    Your car, your call. For me, I would have went with ball polished challenge wheels if they were available with run flats in a second! I opted for standard wheels with run flats for the added security on long distance (multi-state) trips.

    Unlike chrome (too flashy for some) they flow with the car rather than contrast it. I have never heard anyone who ordered them say they regret their decision. I have them on a silverstone-cuio - they look great. The only opinion that counts regarding my cars, art work, etc. are my own. Whose opinion do you live by? Best

    IMO, no, don't get them. They seem to either look like blinginy regular wheels or dirty chrome wheels. Not a good look in either category.

    Depends on car color. If Silverstone I think they work, for Red I'd rather have the silver.
